PRESIDENT and Grand Army.

The sentiments the Grand Army entertain
towards President Cleveland cropped out at
Wheeling Friday, when number of Posts
refused to march beneath banner bearing
his portrait The person who threw out the
banner seems to have done it with the inten-
tion OF rousing the feelings that it did and
making scene. The act was aggravated by
newspaper publication which was pract-
cally challenge to the Grand Army men to
tear the banner down. 1t is to be regretted
that the Posts paid any attention to the flag
or to the person who put it there, for the ul-
Innate object Of Haunting it in their faces
was to provoke them to some act which
would breed political dissensions in their
ranks and weaken thsir influence as an or
ganization. The veterans cannot be blamed
much, however, for their antipathy to the
President. He, with his organs, has brought
1t upon himself. His pension veto messages
last winter were filed with sneers and sar-
casms at some of their number, and his Or
gans are day after day stigmatizing them as
pension grabbers." The pension bill,
which the great majority of them supported
as measure Of simple justice, is character
lied by the Presidents supporters as a
"pauper pension bill, +" and for the denuncia-
of the battle flag order in terms which were
only deserved the commander of the Grand
Army has been made the target of all sorts
of opprobrious epithets. The administration
has had plenty of complimentary words for
the bravery and sacrifice of the Southern
soldier. the monuments to the dead generals
of that section have been dedicated with
most ELUSIVE panegyrics from the President,
and to the men who fought to destroy the
Union the most responsible positions in the
gift Of the government have been committed
while the Northern soldier, crippled though
he may have been in the service of
his country, has often been uncere-
moniously kicked out by the Presi-
dent or his subordinates. Northern
Copperheads, who twenty years ago were
stabbing their country in the back, are now
dispensing the patronage of the government
and declaring that the Grand Army must go.
Under the circumstances it is not to be won

nant, or that their indignation sometimes
impels them beyond the boundaries of dis
